No evidence for intermediate-mass black holes in globular clusters: Strong constraints from the JVLA

With a goal of searching for accreting intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), we report the results of ultra-deep Jansky Very Large Array radio continuum observations of the cores of three Galactic globular clusters: M15, M19, and M22. We reach rms noise levels of 1.5–2.1 μJy beam−1 at an average f...
